Concerns electricity load forecasting.

This bill requires New Jersey's Board of Public Utilities (BPU) to collect and review electricity load-forecasting data from utilities and load-serving entities (non-utility electricity providers). It mandates the BPU to analyze this data - including contracts and commitments affecting future demand - and coordinate with PJM (the regional grid operator) to ensure forecasts are accurate, non-duplicative, and incorporated into regional planning. The BPU must submit annual reports to the Governor and Legislature starting in 2026, summarizing collected data, analysis, and coordination efforts. The goal is to prevent costly overbuilding or underbuilding of grid infrastructure by improving forecasting transparency for consumers and system reliability.
